Defending him all the time will only make you miss him more and you will want to get back to him only to get cheated again. Even when you might have had problems being together, there is still no justification to cheating. If you feel bad about being cheated on despite being the best possible partner ever, then realise that your partner was the one who had other issues that manifested in the form of cheating. So, be at peace with yourself and accept what happened. You can’t do anything about how people behave with you. After all, for how long can you take the responsibility for people’s actions?

They will build you back to your old self. So, be around them the most and trust what they say.

Travel to places you have always wanted to. Make new connections. Engage yourself in the hobbies that you like. This will help you stay distracted.
